Hi Tom, Firstly I'd go straight to 7.6.1; the last of the best before the 8's. Secondly it sounds as though you didn't choose what burner software TOAST calls a "Hybrid" format, meaning that it will be readable by a PC. But in your case maybe "WinImage" has an option where whatever you burn will be readable on a Mac. It will also have to be formatted in Standard Mac OS (which is HFS) rather than Mac OS Extended (which is HFS+) The PC hard drive you are burning from is probably HFS+ formatted. Let us know.
